Photos: Stone Forest in Yunnan

These are my photos of the Stone Forest in Yunnan province. I've never seen anything like this. Very unusual rock formations. Some of them resemble animal shapes, such as the 3rd photo which people say look like a bird's head. I am told that soldiers used to live in these rock formations as a natural fortress. They would be protected from invaders, and any who dared venture into the formations would be ambushed easily. If you wander inside, you can see tables and beds crudely made from the natural rock, which were used by the soldiers of ancient times.
